Chapter 1188 Which Senior?

“You, you…”

The astral energy of the sword dissipated.

Finally, the astral energy of the sword, which was as thick as stalks in a field of flax, turned into pieces and transformed into a long sword in Fang Qiu’s hand. The elder watched the whole process, and a trace of shock emerged in his unwilling eyes.

“Let me show you what a real guru is!”

Gazing intently at the old man, Fang Qiu snorted coldly, and an aura that only belonged to a guru erupted from his body and pressed down on his old rival.

With the appearance of this aura…

The unwillingness in the old man’s eyes disappeared instantly, and was replaced by incomparable shock!

“Is, is this the mystic background of Huaxia?”

Blood spurted from his mouth.

As soon as he finished speaking, he collapsed and died.

When he fell on the glacier’s ice surface, there was only one thought in his mind: regret, extreme regret!

He shouldn’t have come to Huaxia.

He shouldn’t have been in such a hurry.

If he hadn’t come, he might have achieved the breakthrough smoothly and become a guru, which would have prolonged his life for another few decades.

But now, everything was over.

Filled with shock and regret, the old man lost all his vitality, his eyes turning white!

“Whew…”

Fang Qiu heaved a long sigh of relief.

He didn’t expect to meet such an expert in this place.

Fang Qiu had to admit that this elder was the best Half-step Guru he had ever encountered. It happened that his countermove managed to restrain him; otherwise, it would not have been easy to deal with him.

After all, this old man’s technique was too unique for anyone else to defeat him.

Others wouldn’t dare to get anywhere near him in order to avoid his poison.

Unfortunately, he met Fang Qiu!

Fang Qiu took out his phone.

He opened the WeChat group and saw a lot of messages from the others. Some of them had killed their enemies, and some had repelled them!

Only the five gurus were still fighting!

“It seems that these foreign gurus are equally good.”

Fang Qiu pursed his lips and immediately rushed toward Diwu Mingchuan, who was the closest to him.

Halfway there…

He sensed waves of incomparably powerful energy fluctuations coming from ahead.

Diwu Mingchuan must have been fighting an intense battle!

When he was a hundred meters away from the battlefield, Fang Qiu concealed his figure and aura and quietly stopped at the top of a large mass of ice where there were icicles which stood around like a forest encircling it.

Under cover of these icicles, Fang Qiu concealed himself well enough and secretly watched the battle from a hundred meters away.

Diwu Mingchuan’s opponent was a hunter clad in leather clothing and was armed with a hunting rifle in his hand. However, what shot out of the rifle were not bullets but balls of energy.

Diwu Mingchuan could easily approach him to attack, but his opponent was agile and skillful. In particular, the hunting gun in his hand was a highly efficient weapon.

Looking from afar, he was sure that Diwu Mingchuan was the better of the two.

But, with his remarkable movements and flexible control of his attacking range, he fought fiercely with Diwu Mingchuan.

Every time Diwu Mingchuan got closer to him, the foreigner would meet his first strike head-on and immediately retreat to a further place, shooting wildly from a distance to stop Diwu Mingchuan from approaching. Besides, he kept the gun aimed squarely at Diwu Mingchuan’s fatal points.

In this case, it was impossible for Diwu Mingchuan to slay him in a short time.

“Playing with a gun?”

Thinking of this, Fang Qiu pondered on how to help Diwu Mingchuan. He searched around and his eyes immediately fell on the densely-packed ice pillars around him.

These icicles were very tall and solid and had sharp ends!

Fang Qiu glanced around.

When he found a three-meter-tall giant icicle with a width about the size of a basketball beside him, he wasted no time exerting the power of a guru and removed it from the ground with both hands clasped around it.

Then, he directly aimed at the foreign hunter from a distance.

With his right hand, he raised the icicle high and flung it forward with all his strength.

“Swish!”

An ear-piercing sound broke out.

With this swinging movement, the icicle held in Fang Qiu’s hand suddenly shot forward at a breakneck speed like a bullet, taking the foreign hunter by surprise.

The sudden appearance of this huge icicle gave the foreign hunter quite a scare.

He fired from a distance, trying to break it before the icicle hit him.

“A good chance for me!”

Diwu Mingchuan narrowed his eyes as he moved aside. Immediately, he darted toward another angle and melted into the shadows. Then, he waved his right hand.

A whip was thrown out of nowhere.

When the enemy was trying to fend off the icicle, Diwu Mingchuan waved the long whip at him. It flew through the air like a snake. With a flash of cold light, a sharp blade like a willow leaf tied at the whip’s tail instantly slashed the throat of the foreign hunter who had no time to defend himself!

“A whip?”

Fang Qiu was stunned. He didn’t expect that Diwu Mingchuan’s weapon was a whip.

However…

He could use this whip for long-distance attacks, but his weapon lost its advantage when facing a gun that had a much longer attacking distance.

No wonder Diwu Mingchuan didn’t take it out.

Now, he caught his opponent unawares by playing his trump card in time!

He ended this long battle with one final strike.

Diwu Mingchuan quickly put away the long whip.

Then he turned around and gave a hold fist salute in the direction where the icicle flew over from.

“I wonder which senior did me this favor. Would you care to show yourself and meet with me?”

The voice of Diwu Mingchuan rang out.

Fang Qiu flashed aside, concealed all his aura, and quietly walked away without Diwu Mingchuan noticing.

Diwu Mingchuan didn’t leave.

He stayed where he was and looked around, waiting for the “senior” to appear!

The “senior” he was waiting for was John Doe, whom he had always called a “brat,” but how could he know that? But if he knew the truth, wouldn’t it come as a great surprise to him?

After waiting for a long time, no one showed up.

“Senior, thank you.”

Without any delay, Diwu Mingchuan thanked him again and turned to leave.

As he left, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the WeChat group: Slayed Already!

One after another, 23 people who had completed their tasks returned to the place where they had fought with the Nirvana Organization.

Only six gurus and John Doe hadn’t yet arrived.

“Why hasn’t John Doe arrived yet?”

“Did he run away again?”

“According to the news in the group, he was the first to kill a foreign enemy, so he should have returned a long time ago!”

There were many discussions among them.

At this moment, a message came to the WeChat group with a beep.

Everyone opened their phones to check.

It was a message from Diwu Mingchuan.

Slayed Already!

His message shocked everyone!

“Awesome!”

“The Diwu family’s patriarch’s opponent was a guru, wasn’t he?”

“Although his opponent was a foreigner, he was also a guru!”

Everyone’s expressions changed.

When they looked at each other, their faces were full of disbelief.

A guru!

His rival was a guru!

Those who had reached the Guru Realm could hardly die unless many enemies of the same strength besieged them. Otherwise, they would only get injured at most. Anyway, these gurus couldn’t get killed.

Their five gurus encircled and killed the black-robed guru of the Nirvana Organization, who had been holding on for a long time. If John Doe had not taken him by surprise, it would have been difficult for the five gurus to kill him!

But now, Diwu Mingchuan killed a foreign guru by himself!

The more they thought about it, the more shocked they became.

They had never thought that Diwu Mingchuan was so formidable!

When everyone was still in shock, Fang Qiu arrived.

“John Doe.”

“Brat, where did you go?”

“Weren’t you the first to kill the enemy? Why did you come back so late?”

Seeing Fang Qiu, everyone immediately gathered around to ask.

“I was so unlucky!”

Faced with everyone’s questions, Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and said helplessly, “It’s true that I killed a foreign water-type metahuman. After that, when I was about to rush back, another elder from Zhongdong popped up. You know, the government didn’t send this elder’s location to me.”

Everyone then understood why he was late.

When Fang Qiu shared the location with everyone, all of them knew that this location had been sent to him by the government, so they trusted Fang Qiu even more. After all, even the government believed in him. Why would they bother suspecting him?

“This old guy’s strength was excellent. When he fought with me, he even made a breakthrough and became a guru. But I interrupted his breakthrough and seized a chance to kill him!”

Speaking of this, Fang Qiu shook his head again and added, “If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have come back so late.”

“Whoosh.”

As soon as he finished speaking, several swishing sounds could be heard.

Diwu Mingchuan and the other four gurus came back.

They glanced at each other.

There were 29 people — all of them came back safely.

Everyone gave a hold fist salute to each other and burst out laughing.

“This battle is magnificent!”

Master Numinous said to everyone in high spirits, “Although the four of us failed to kill the foreign enemies, we drove them out of our country. I suppose they will have to think it over carefully before they try to enter our territory.”

All the others nodded in agreement.

Everyone’s faces were full of pride.

“Oh, by the way.”

Lin Qingyi stood up and looked at Diwu Mingchuan, asking, “Patriarch Diwu, how did you finish off a guru by yourself?”

Everyone heard his question.

All of them, including Master Numinous and the other three patriarchs, turned to Diwu Mingchuan, looking curiously at him.

“Well, about this…”

Diwu Mingchuan smiled wryly and said, “My opponent was potent, and it was challenging to kill him. Originally, I just wanted to drive him away, but this guy was excessively cunning. He never fought with me face to face and tried many times to penetrate my defense.”

“Just as I was at a stalemate with him, an expert suddenly intervened to help me, which gave me an excellent chance to kill him in one fell swoop!”

“But that expert didn’t show himself. He left after assisting me.”

His description made everyone even more curious.

“An expert?”

“Even Patriarch Diwu called him an expert. Then how extraordinary was he?”

“Is there such a mighty expert in our country?”

Listening to everyone’s curious questions and doubts, Diwu Mingchuan raised his eyebrows and said, “According to the situation at that time, this expert who did not show himself must have the strength to kill a guru. Otherwise, he couldn’t have helped me kill the enemy with only one move!”
